Prince Harry suffers fresh blow as petition launched to stop Duke of Sussex from receiving award
Prince Harry has suffered a fresh blow as a petition has been launched to stop him from receiving an award.
The Duke of Sussex is set to be given the memorial award set up in the name of Pat Tillman in Hollywood next month.
Tilman gave up a lucrative career in the NFL to enlist as an Army Ranger in 2002.
The US war hero served in Iraq and then Afghanistan, where he was killed by friendly fire in 2004.
The petition says “awarding this honour to someone who does not reflect the award’s intent diminishes its value and disrespects Tillman’s memory.”
